Aluminium doors offer greater structural strength per unit thickness, allowing for slimmer frames and larger glass panels — ideal for balcony doors, lift-and-slide systems and modern facades.

Aluminium conducts more heat than UPVC, so for pure insulation performance UPVC has the edge; for large-format sliding or bi-fold doors, aluminium's strength makes it the more practical choice.

Many homes use both — UPVC for insulated living spaces, aluminium for expansive balcony or garden openings. We help you decide during your free site visit.
